About
I have always been passionate about computers. Since elementary school when they first brought them into our learning environment I was hooked. My 3rd grade teacher allowed me to use the computers to help create word searches and other games for the students instead of doing my studies as I was supposed to be moved to the 5th grade and had well surpassed the learning requirements of his classroom.
At age 12 I solved my first Trojan virus with the assistance of the Dell and Microsoft call line. At age 15 I built my first gaming computer and then began doing so for my friends. Age 18 first job repairing tech and electronics. Age 25 adopted little brother. Age 30 opened first electronics repair business. Age 37 completed first semester of college with 4.0
